Constitution is the 'book of destiny', conspiracy to delete votes in name of SIR: Akhilesh Yadav

SP chief Akhilesh Yadav warns against weakening the Constitution and alleges a conspiracy to delete votes in the name of SIR during a speech in Agra.

"For the first time, we are hearing that a constitutional institution is more interested in removing votes than registering them. - Akhilesh Yadav"

Agra, Dec 6

Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav on Saturday launched a sharp attack on the central and Uttar Pradesh governments, alleging that a concerted bid is going on to weaken the Constitution.

On the death anniversary of Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar, addressing a gathering in Agra, Yadav said the Constitution drafted by Dr Ambedkar is the “book of destiny” for the PDA (Pichhda, Dalit, Alpsankhyak -- Backward, Dalit, Minority) communities, and warned that attempts to undermine it are intensifying.

Without this Constitution, he said, the deprived sections would have faced “unimaginable hardships”.

He accused “dominant forces” of repeatedly insulting the PDA communities. He also mentioned the incident of shoes thrown in the Supreme Court, saying it reflects this attitude.

Yadav cautioned that weakening the Constitution would endanger both democracy and reservation. “People with autocratic thinking want to run the country with their own mindset,” he alleged.

The SP chief also levelled serious allegations regarding the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. He claimed that there appears to be a greater focus on deleting names rather than adding them.

“For the first time, we are hearing that a constitutional institution is more interested in removing votes than registering them,” he said, urging citizens to verify their names in the voter list.

Claiming that the SP will receive “historic support” in the upcoming Agra Assembly elections, Yadav said the Agra Metro and the expressway were achievements of the Samajwadi government.

“The BJP’s double-engine government has not been able to build even a single such road,” he added.

He also criticised the BJP government for the state of the Yamuna River, calling it “reduced to a drain”. He promised that if voted to power, the SP government would clean the Yamuna on the lines of the Gomti River and develop a riverfront in Agra.

Yadav said the SP has strengthened its election strategy and will field only those candidates who genuinely serve the public.

He added that Agra’s cultural identity -- linked to the Taj Mahal, the Dargah, and its famed craftsmanship -- would be promoted further.

After offering a chadar at the Dargah of Sheikh Salim Chishti in Fatehpur Sikri, Yadav said the shrine symbolises India’s composite culture.

“Our Indianness resides in this shared culture and brotherhood,” he said. He prayed for peace, progress, and harmony in the country and also visited monuments, including the Buland Darwaza.

The allegation about deleting names from voter lists is very serious. Everyone should check their name online immediately. Democracy is about every single vote counting.

While the talk on Constitution is important, I wish he spent more time talking about concrete plans for Agra's development rather than just attacking opponents. Yamuna cleaning is a promise we've heard for 30 years from all parties.

Visiting the Dargah and speaking about composite culture is a positive message. India's strength is in its diversity and shared heritage. More politicians should focus on this unity.

Claiming Metro and expressway as SP's achievement when the work continued under other governments is typical political spin. Development is a continuous process, not owned by one party. Let's focus on future projects.

The condition of Yamuna is a national shame, especially for a city that hosts the Taj Mahal. Any party that can genuinely clean it will get my vote. Enough of blame games, we need action. 🙏

Interesting to see the focus on PDA communities. In a democracy, every group's rights must be protected as per the Constitution. The warning about reservations is something that needs open, respectful discussion, not just
